Environment

Novell ZENworks 11 Configuration Management

Situation

Throttling set on Linux content satellite configuration is not being used.

Resolution

This issue was not reproduced in ZCM 11 SP1.
 

Additional Information

A LAN trace on the Linux satellite will show throughput.
 
A simplistic way to show throughput is to run ifconfig manually on the satellite. Ifconfig output will display RX bytes: which is the number of bytes received.  Repeating ifconfig and subtracting RX bytes: from the previous attempt will give you an idea if throttling is honoured.
